The Prince Regent Is Powerful, And My Mommy Is Expecting Again! - Chapter 8
Did You Say That Mother Beat Up Madam Yu?
Gu Lin took a step forward and firmly blocked his younger sister behind him.
“Why are you at home?” He looked at Gu Qingxue expressionlessly and asked, “Didn’t Madam Yu ask you to work for her early in the morning? Aren’t you afraid that she’ll beat you up when you come back?”
His tone was somewhat mocking.
Gu Qingxue was not angry either.
If it were her, she might also be angry if she met a mother like her original owner.
After all, the previous owner of her body did not have the responsibility of being a mother. Most of the time, she even needed Gu Lin to take care of her.
“I won’t be working for Madam Yu anymore.” Gu Qingxue parted the corners of her lips and revealed a bright smile. “You two put down the basket and quickly wash your hands. It’s going to be lunch soon.”
With that, Gu Qingxue walked toward the kitchen.
Lunch?
Gu Lin and Gu Lingbao looked at each other and saw the disbelief in each other’s eyes.
This was not what surprised them the most.
What surprised them the most was Gu Qingxue’s smile not long ago
How could a smile that could melt ice and snow, like a blazing sun, appear on their mother’s face?
Their mother was usually either crying or sulking at home with a straight face.
“Big brother, do you smell any fragrance?” Only then did Gu Lingbao notice the fragrance in the air. In an instant, saliva unexpectedly slid down the corner of his mouth.
Gu Lin also smelled the fragrance. His nose moved and he looked towards the kitchen.
The kitchen was emitting smoke. The mouth-watering fragrance came from the kitchen.
“Let’s go look for Dumby first,” Gu Lin said to Gu Lingbao while suppressing his curiosity.
Dumby had caught a cold these two days, so when he went to pick up firewood today, he went to the forest to find some herbs.
Gu Lingbao was also worried about Dumby, so he nodded.
The two of them placed the basket filled with firewood on the ground, then ran into the house hand in hand.
Dumby obediently lay on the bed and wrapped himself tightly with the blanket.
When he heard the sound of the door opening, he turned his head to look at the door.
“Big brother, little sister.” The moment he saw Gu Lingbao and Gu Lin, Dumby wanted to get up and greet them, but when he thought of his mother’s arrangements, he still chose to lie still.
Gu Lin quickened his steps to the bedside and reached out to touch Dumby’s forehead. It was still slightly hot, but it was not as hot as it was this morning.
Gu Lin could not help but let out a sigh of relief.
If Dumby’s fever continued, they would have to hire a doctor.
However, they only had two copper coins left in their house, which was not enough to hire a doctor.
“Second brother, do you feel better?” Gu Lingbao asked Dumby in a childish voice.
“Much better. My head doesn’t hurt anymore,” Dumby said with a smile.
The miracle medicine his mother gave him was very useful. After he ate it, his head actually did not hurt as much.
It was indeed a miracle medicine!
“Why did mother come back so early today? Did something happen?” Gu Lin sensed that something was wrong with Gu Qingxue and asked Dumby.
Dumby did not hide anything and told Gu Lin and Gu Lingbao everything that had happened to Madam Yu.
After Gu Lin and Gu Lingbao heard what Dumby said, one of them fell into silence expressionlessly while the other opened his mouth in surprise.
“Did you say that mother beat up Madam Yu?” Gu Lingbao asked in surprise.
